Driving around Vancouver may help you with a lot of things in daily life. For example: grocery shopping, meeting up with friends, hiking on remote park trails. However, before doing all of these great activities, of course, vehicles require gasoline to fill up the tank to keep them running. But what I found out is gasoline in Canada is quite expensive, whatever brands we use, the average price of gasoline nowadays costs 160.9 ( which means $1.6 per gallon), and the highest cost I found was 180.9, in Vancouver.
Your Pain Points before using “Gas Buddy”
First, the chances of getting great gasoline prices may be slim because this may require you to research which area of the community has fewer customers, the second option requires you to drive around to get the best bang for your buck. These issues I believe are common for every driver.
After using “Gas Buddy”
“Gas Buddy” is really useful. The reason is that the app already records as all nearby gasoline stations, wherever you travel with the brand, the address, and the price update within every hour collected from different users. This result would be really time-consuming in real time, and it offers the best solution for drivers to find gasoline nearby, at a great price. The other worth-while feature: you may input the gasoline consumption in the app, also the price and the distance traveled, and the feature has GPS tracking record recording how far you drive daily and the fuel consumption/saving.
Conclusion
After I found out about this app, it definitely solved the problem of finding the best gasoline price and definitely helped me save more money. I would strongly recommend this app for drivers who haven’t installed it, it definitely is your best friend and a lifesaver.
